We’re used to seeing rear extensions housing kitchen-diners, but with this project, designer Sybille Garnier Le Mené of Into interior design gave the usual layout a twist. She sited a smart kitchen in the reception room at the front of the house and created a gorgeously light living space with garden views at the back that works well for the young family of four who live here. This is the first home the family have owned and they wanted to get it right. “They were seeking professional help so their future home truly felt like home,” Sybille says. “They found me on Houzz and we instantly connected – we had a lot in common in terms of taste and style preferences.” As well as a family-friendly layout, the couple were keen to have plenty of storage and Sybille found some inventive ways to incorporate it, from slotting it under seating to stealing slivers of space from adjoining rooms. To see more great projects where the homeowner found their professional via Houzz, take a look at our Born on Houzz series.
